I am always trying to find a way to cut down on the number of inboxes in my life. My work issues me a Blackberry and I have a Droid for personal use. This lends itself to a number of annoyances, which the service Google Voice has helped me correct.
First off, I got a new Google Voice number. I then took that number and "linked" it to my two existing cell phones. This allowed to configure Google Voice as the voicemail service for both cell phones. I now have ONE inbox to check for voicemail instead of two.
I also give people my Google Voice number for texting. I installed the Google Voice app on both my phones and my texts go to both phones.
And, there's a web interface for it all that you can sync to.
Not a Google employee, just a happy customer.
